Personal Assistant Needed

I am a cheerful guy nearing 30 years old looking for a new personal assistant who can primarily work weekends (day and evening) as well as weekday evenings (around 2 PM – 8:30 PM). It would be an advantage if you can start working immediately.

I have significant disabilities that require your assistance to do everything I want in life. Eating, dressing, and communicating are among the more basic needs, but just as important is that I can do things on my own with your support. I enjoy activities and like to be out in the city, meet friends, and take the subway. My favorite pastimes and interests include swimming and listening to music.

I can stand with support, but I always need help from two steady hands for transfers. Sometimes heavy lifting is necessary. Therefore, it is a prerequisite that you are reasonably fit and strong. I also have epilepsy. I live in my own apartment in Tallkrogen and work at a daily activity center located centrally in Stockholm. Sometimes I go to my summer place in Värmdö and occasionally take longer trips to places like Gotland or Spain.

It is essential that you have a structured approach and can collaborate easily, as the work often involves teamwork with other assistants. It is important that you are social and can communicate easily. You need to speak Swedish fluently for communication to work. It is beneficial if you are inventive, proactive, and at the same time attentive to my needs and wishes. A driver's license is a plus, but being smoke-free is a requirement.

With JAG as your employer, you will have opportunities for further education, wellness grants, and 80 hours of introduction alongside an experienced assistant.
